"we lived freely as christians," this man tells me, "putting up christmas trees and decorations, but now we are being targeted." a dirty war, no end in sight. we should let you know we've come to this country with the permission of the government who want the other side of the story told. but there's no doubt the rebellion here has changed. and ordinary syrians increasingly just want the fighting to stop and they dread the chaos that's been unleashed here. bashar assad himself seems to know this. the man the u.s. said must go told a group of visitors today, "we are sure we will win." diane? >> all right, terry
